Meeting and exceeding the data replication governance requirements of an organization are critical for an IT administration. SyncIQ exceeds these requirements by providing an array of configuration options, ensuring that administrators have flexible options to satisfy all workflows with simplicity.
Under each deployment, the configuration could be for the entire cluster or a specified source directory. Further, the deployment could have a single policy configured between the clusters or several policies, each with different options aligning to RPO and RTO requirements. For more information about configuration options, see Configuring a SyncIQ policy.
